The word `stress` is defined by the Oxford Dictionary as "a state of affair involving demand on physical or mental energy". A condition or circumstance (not always adverse), which can disturb the normal physiological and psychological functioning of an individual. In medical parlance `stress` is defined as a perturbation of the body`s homeostasis. This demand on mind-body occurs when it tries to cope with incessant changes in life. A `stress` condition seems `relative` in nature. Extreme stress conditions, psychologists say, are detrimental to human health but in moderation stress is normal and, in many cases, proves useful. Stress, nonetheless, is synonymous with negative conditions. Today, with the rapid diversification of human activity, we come face to face with numerous causes of stress and the symptoms of anxiety and depression.

The purpose of the study was to find out the effects of yogic training, aerobic training and detraining on cardio-respiratory endurance of college male students. For this study 45 (forty five) healthy untrained subjects were selected on random basis. The students were selected from Dr.R.K.Shanmugam College of Arts & Science, Indili, Kallakurichi T.K Villupuram (Dt) in Tamil Nadu, India. The subject's age were ranged between 18 to 21 years. The selected subjects were divided into three groups, each group consist of fifteen (15) subjects. Group I underwent yogic training, group II underwent aerobic training and group III acted as a control group. The selected Asanas and Pranayama were given to yogic training group. The selected aerobic dance steps assigned for aerobic training group. The duration of the training period was stipulated to 12 weeks for 5 days per week (45 minutes). Control group was kept under control without any training. The cardio-respiratory endurance was measured by using 12-Minutes run / walk tests. Prior to and after the end of practice period all the subjects were tested on cardio-respiratory endurance. The results of pre, mid, post, first, second, and third cessation test were compared statistically analyzed by using two-way factorial analysis of variance with last factor repeated measures. The 'F' ratio value was statistically analyzed and tested for significant difference at 0.05 level of confidence.

The purpose of this study was determine comparative effect of SAQ and CIRCUIT training progamme on selected physical fitness variables of school level male Kho-Kho players. (Age 14 to 16 year) 90 player selected of the Nanded city were randomly assigned in to three group exp. Group A. SAQ training Exp. B. Circuit training and control group. Exp. Group A underwent a SAQ training programme of selected exersices; exp group B received a Circuit training programme selected exercises. All these training programme were imparted a total period of 8 weeks. The following criterion measures were chosen for testing hypothesis. The speed was measured by using 50 yards run the unit of measurement was in 1/100 seconds. The leg explosive strength was measured by standing broad jump and the unit of measurement was in meters. The muscular strength endurance was measured by bent knee set-ups and the unit of measurement was in counts.

Sport is not purely a physiological phenomenon but a complex interplay of the mind and body. It is now becoming more and more competitive and has also become a career with an emphasis on monetary gains and the desire to win at any cost. Therefore, it is important to find solutions to the changing sports scene of today. A sports person needs four basic qualities: Speed, Skill, Strength and Stamina. To achieve these in professional sports, the daily life of a sports person calls for discipline in training, a balanced diet, a balanced lifestyle and an inner focus and determination.

Purpose of present study was to develop the suitable equation to predict the speed of sub junior athletes. To keeping this purpose in mind long range of variables from different categories was selected i.e. Physical, physiological, psychological and anthropometric, while the variables were leg strength, back strength, abdominal strength, flexibility, height, weight, leg length, arm length, calf girth, thigh girth, motivation, aggression, self confidence, resting heart rate and vital capacity. Subjects for this study were selected by stratified random sampling method from KVBamrauli, Allahabad. Data for this study was collected during sports camp by application of suitable criterion measures. Product moment correlation and multiple correlation was used to find out the correlation between criterion and predictor variables, while backward linear regression method was used to develop the prediction equation at 0.05 level of significance. According to findings leg strength, back strength, flexibility, height, motivation and vital capacity is found correlated with speed and equation develop on basis of these variables is significant for prediction. Some of variables like leg length, calf girth is not found correlated with speed may due to nature of different sport. May suitable prediction can be done if subjects are selected form on particular sports in large number.
